It may well be a moot effort, but Yumi was going to try to plead with Viral one last time. Even if he was able to recognize her it might not do any good, but right now she had no other plans. For a moment or two it appeared as though she'd managed to do it, the Beastman stopped his assault and appeared to be struggling with himself. "That's right Viral, I know you can hear me!" she said hopefully, managing a small smile, "You need to relax, one of us could get hurt if you don't!" No sooner had those last few words left her lips did her friend snap again, coming back after her again ferociously. Their intention of having a simple sparring session was far out the window now and she was just trying to stay safe, so there wasn't much reason any longer to hold back. She wouldn't fight Viral, that wasn't what she had in mind. There was a way she could hopefully avoid him and buy some time to think things through. Waiting until he was nearly close enough to grab her, Yumi jumped up in the air and took to flying, going up far as close to the ceiling as she could get. Then, using her speed she tried to dart around the room and confuse Viral, hiding off in the far corner to get a moment's reprieve. Once she was situated she closed her eyes, inhaling deeply then exhaling in the same manner, trying to almost meditate as Geoffrey had shown her back on Earth. She had to be calm, relax and be careful about what she would do next. With no immediate incoming danger she managed to slowly get her breathing back under control, and with it her heightened state became more calm and relaxed too. Right... Now what was she going to do about Viral?

This sure was a lot of dishes, considering that Yumi and Viral's mess was in the sink as well. So it would be a little more work than Takeshi had bargained for, both cleaning and packing away whatever was left over. Good thing he didn't mind getting a bit messy because there was a ton to throw away too. Placing the plates to the side of the sink he rolled up his sleeves, pointing out a spot for Shu to set his load as well. "Want me to show you how? It's easy to do, you can probably do it." Grabbing the nearest sponge he dumped a fair bit of soap into it, giving it a squeeze to get it in there. Next he grabbed the plates that had food left on them, starting to dump what they weren't saving in the trash and placing those that they were saving off to the side; wrapping up the plates in their entirety would be much quicker than finding containers for them. "I guess it's kind of the same? Though I don't use a sponge on you... That would be weird... Just watch me, I'll show you how it's done," he added, pausing to peer out the window at Kai and Choi, "I'll try not having too much fun! Thanks for the food!" he called back. "Now then, first thing you want to do is get the water on, and you gotta use warm water, otherwise the food might not come off. When you do that, hold the plate or whatever you're cleaning under the water and start scrubbing." Since he knew words were a bit lost on Shu he opted to show as well, grabbing the first plate and getting a stream of water going. Using the sponge, Takeshi carefully got every little crumb off before rinsing the suds off, placing the wet plate in a strainer. "Easy, right? Want to try?"
